Sweets & Chocolates
NO GREEK HOUSEHOLD IS EVER WITHOUT SOME FORM OF SWEETS TO OFFER GUESTS OR TO JUST HAVE AROUND BECAUSE THEY ARE SUCH “SWEET TOOTHS”. FOR EXAMPLE, LOUKOUMI (TURKISH DELIGHT), WHICH IS A CHEWY GELATINE CANDY AVAILABLE IN MANY FLAVORS, WAS OFTEN SERVED WITH A CUP OF GREEK COFFEE BOTH AT HOME AND IN THE KAFENEIONS. ORIGINALLY OF TURKISH ORIGIN, MANY ISLANDS ARE FAMOUS FOR THEIR VERSIONS OF THIS TREAT. ANOTHER FAMOUS SWEET IS PASTELLI, THE NUTRITION BAR, WHOSE BASIC INGREDIENTS ARE HONEY AND SESAME SEEDS. THIS CAN BE TRACED BY TO HOMER’S TIME.
